2020: Sterilization of instruments in a dental clinic

Below are the most effective ways to secure the tools of the dental clinic for 2020. The sterilization method is chosen based on the needs and capabilities of the clinic, often several methods are used at the same time.

Thermal. Purification occurs through hot steam (134 degrees Celsius) and high pressure (about 4 atmospheres). At the same time, each individual set of tools is packed in a kraft package, on which there is an indicator of the quality of processing.

Airy. Hot air treatment. Microflora dies due to protein burning in cells.

Microwave. It takes no more than 30 seconds, while reliably destroying microbes using high temperature.

Chemical. Disinfectants (wide-spectrum products) are used, into which tools are immersed.

Gas. Of all gases, ozone destroys organic matter best and fastest. He oxidizes it, literally tearing the cells to shreds.

Radiation. The most effective method. It destroys microbes at the molecular level by affecting surfaces with gamma rays.
